Daily Schedule
The Daily Schedule lists the timers that are planned for today, the future (up to nine days),
and those that occurred in the recent past. Use the Daily Schedule as described on
page 71 to:
• Review today's timers. You can choose to skip a scheduled timer, or restore a timer
that was not planned to occur, perhaps because of a conflict with another program.
See Timer Priorities.
• Review future timers, up to nine days in advance, and make changes as necessary.
• Review past timers to see which occurred, and the reason why one did not, if
applicable. See Reasons Why Timers Are Skipped.
